The RuneScape team released a new free-to-all quest for players, named ‘A shadow over Ashdale’.

All begin with Gudrick’s curiosity. He finds all cargo ships that sail to Ashdale are coming back untouched. He asks you to find out the reason behind this. You will sail to the once glorious Ashdale, only to find it is facing unprecedented danger.

When you start to investigate the island, you will find something is wrong. Some wired stuff is penetrating the air. Ashdale is more horrible and quite than ever. Your job is to investigate the mystery, to uncover the dirty conspiracy, and most importantly to save Ashdale’s innocent people from their horrible fate.

There are no requirements for players to enjoy the quest, but you will face combat tasks that match to your level. So do not forget to armor up before set foot on Ashdale. The Reward is of course attractive, including XP lamps and 3 black pearls that will benefit you with extra XP on any skill you choose. It varies on your level.

The new quest is unique in the way it unfolds. The team has made great efforts to produce a vivid adventure for players. The realistic environment and the stunning visual effect will bring players a different perspective to the RuneScape world. Unlike in other quests, this time players will spend much more time in exploring and investigating rather than fighting.

Along with new quest, the Solomon’s General Store also introduces some new armor overrides for example plate armor whose color can be customized with the metal you choose, Armadyl and Bandos armor and all four Godswords.

The graphics of 12 current player kits is updated and polished. Go find Thessalia in the clothes shop in Varrock to apply and see the changes. Old ones are kept and renamed with ‘retro’ prefix. In addition to these, they also add a new set of 'Pathfinder' hybrid armor as rewards to those make achievements in the Path System.
